Back in the PRC

I am back in Beijing, the air is as thick with the dust of construction as it was last time. There are more Hyundais on the streets as well, rather than just VWs and Audis. Flew Continental this time around, they have a polar hop, bringing us in from Newark over Greenland, near the North Pole, over the Russian far east, over Mongolia and down into China. Mostly cloudy, but then how much is there really to see from 38,000 ft of Mongolia?
